Fabrizio Romano drops big update ahead of Liverpool vs Real Madrid
By Kian Long
Before the big Liverpool vs Real Madrid clash, Fabrizio Romano has dropped a big update involving transfer target Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Tomorrow night, Real Madrid will face Liverpool at Anfield Stadium. There is plenty at stake in this match, with Liverpool the favourites. The Reds have had an exceptional start to the season, winning every European game and sitting top of both the Champions League and Premier League tables.
For Real Madrid, the situation is sparsely different. Unfortunately, Los Blancos are not doing great in the Champions League, despite being the holders. The Spanish side are 18th in the table, awful.
So, what has Fabrizio Romano had to say before Liverpool vs Real Madrid tomorrow evening?
Fabrizio Romano drops big update ahead of Liverpool vs Real Madrid
According to Fabrizio Romano, Trent Alexander-Arnold has returned to Liverpool training, the day before they host Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League.
Trent Alexander-Arnold has been out of action since the beginning of the month. His last match for Liverpool was against Aston Villa, where he played only 25 minutes.
After missing the international break, Trent Alexander-Arnold is back. Whether Arne Slot starts him against Real Madrid is a different story but this is a big boost for Liverpool, who could call upon him if required.
Trent Alexander-Arnold is one of Liverpool's best players. He needs absolutely no introduction to Real Madrid fans, who have grown rather attached to the Englishman themselves.
There remains every possibility that Real Madrid could sign Trent Alexander-Arnold this season. His Liverpool contract expires at the end of the campaign and Real Madrid are the most interested side.
Real Madrid are without the services of Dani Carvajal long-term and Lucas Vazquez short-term. Therefore, Carlo Ancelotti has had to move players out of position and even give minutes to those who would have never expected it.
Liverpool vs Real Madrid is the standout UEFA Champions League fixture. With plenty of world-class talent on display, it is the perfect opportunity for fans to witness greatness.
However, Real Madrid might head into this game with an ulterior motive. Of course, they will want to win the match at any cost but they may also wish to scout Trent Alexander-Arnold out.
